Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment

Traumatic Brain Injury Causes, Symptoms & Recovery Explained

Traumatic brain injuries do not heal like other injuries, and recovery is based on mechanisms that are not fully predictable. Understanding what a traumatic brain injury is — along with its symptoms, causes, and treatments — can make the difference in early identification and management, leading to better outcomes for all of those affected by this often life-changing diagnosis.

What to Expect Before, During & After Surgical Treatment for Traumatic Brain Injury

Traumatic brain injury surgery can be lifesaving and under certain circumstances specialized surgeons (neurosurgeons) may recommend surgery to treat a complication that develops as a result of a TBI. The specific types of procedure recommended, and the decision to perform the surgery are dictated by the severity of the injury, the specific part of the brain that was injured, and the patient’s age and health. Learn more about the common surgical options, risks, recovery tips, and patient outcomes.

What You Need to Know About Recovery After a Dual Diagnosis of TBI and Spinal Cord Injury

Dual diagnosis of Traumatic Brain Injury and Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) go largely under-recognized although the medical research  estimates that approximately 60% of SCI patients also have  moderate to severe TBI.

These patients face an additional set of challenges compared to patients with isolated TBI and SCI, and understanding the differences is essential to promote a positive rehabilitation outcome. Discover the challenges they face and what families can do to help.

What You Need to Know About Post Concussion Syndrome Treatment

Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS) is a complex and often prolonged condition that can develop following a mild brain injury or concussion. Approximately 90 percent of concussion symptoms are transient, and those symptoms typically resolve within 10–14 days. However, some symptoms (physical, cognitive, behavioral, or emotional in nature) may linger for weeks, impacting their daily functioning and overall well-being.

Discover the best treatment options for post-concussion syndrome, including therapy, medications, and rehab to manage symptoms and support recovery.
